Biometric Screenings at Boynton Health Service

UPlan members are encouraged to attend a preventive health screening administered by Boynton Health Service. Boynton schedules screenings on all University campuses at many times throughout the year. Check Boynton's screening schedules for more information.

When you complete a biometric health screening through Boynton, your test results data will be electronically transmitted directly to your StayWell Online profile, the University's independent third party administrator for the Wellness Program. Note: The University never has access to your health information and only ever sees de-identified, aggregated health data.

Biometric Screenings at the Duluth QuickCare Clinic

You may also schedule a biometric health screening at the UM-Duluth QuickCare Clinic. To do so, you must schedule an appointment. When you complete a biometric health screening through the QuickCare Clinic, your test results data will be electronically transmitted directly to your StayWell Online profile, the University's independent third party administrator for the Wellness Program.

Biometric Screenings at Your Physician's Office

In lieu of biometric health screening data obtained through an on-campus screening, UPlan members can obtain a screening through their private physician's office. To be credited wellness points for doing so, you must submit your screening results to StayWell using the Biometric Health Screening Provider Form. Regularly-scheduled medical exams and health screenings are considered preventive care and their cost, in general, is covered by your medical plan.
